Amid US President Donald Trump’s announcement of brokering ceasefire between Israel and Iran, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Tuesday stated that Iran has launched fresh missile strikes. Following the missile attack, sirens have been sounded in Israel. Notably, Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stressed that military operations to punish Israel for its aggression continued until the very last minute, at 4 am.
IDF wrote on X, “Sirens sounding in Israel due to a missile launch from Iran.”
Earlier, there were reports of Israel launching multiple fresh strikes in different locations in Iran, moments after Trump declared an end to the 12-day war between Israel and Iran. As reported by Press TV, Iran’s First International News Network, the Israeli Military attacked several areas in Iran.
The News Network claimed in a post on X, “Israeli military strikes several locations in Iran as Trump announces ceasefire.” The dramatic turn of events came after President Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a ‘complete and total ceasefire’. Taking to his ‘Truth Social’ account on X, Trump said that the ceasefire would take effect in approximately. 6 hours.
Ceasefire Between Iran And Israel?
While, Trump announced a “complete and total” ceasefire between Israel and Iran, stating that it would take effect in approximately six hours, Iran’s Foreign Minister highlighted that there is no agreement. In a post on Truth Social, Trump had stated that the ceasefire has been jointly agreed upon by both nations and would mark a significant de-escalation in hostilities that have gripped the region. However, Araghchi asserted that the final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.
“As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around. As of now, there is NO “agreement” on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards. The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later,” wrote Iran’s Foreign Minister on X.
